摘要 The world is trying to recover from once in the COVID-19 pandemic, which has a higher mortality rate than the common flu. However, the threat of different variants is still affecting us in a different capacity. Several preventive measures have been adopted across the nation and the globe to avoid the spr<span style="font-family:Verdana;">ead of this virus, such as lockdown, restricted travel, social distancing guidelin</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">es, obligatory face mask use, etc. These activities directly influenced the manag</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ement of social life, economy, and livelihoods. The effect of COVID-</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">19 on the public transit industry and strategies the transit agencies adapted to continue providing the service during the pandemic has been synthesized in this pap</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">er. As a result of the pandemic, public transit ridership decreased by abou</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">t 70 percent for most agencies compared to pre-pandemic levels. This article also highlights the prevention of COVID-19 spread in the public transit industry using engineering solutions and advanced material science and nanotechnology solutions.</span> The world is trying to recover from once in the COVID-19 pandemic, which has a higher mortality rate than the common flu.
